Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 386 - 281. It’s all done by the younger brother.

When some people experience a great shock, they usually don’t scream but stand dumbfounded with a blank mind, much like Xia Xiaoxiao right now.

The young girl’s left hand was still under her body, and her right hand was raised high in the air, having forgotten what she intended to do, her face a complex mix of surprise, shame, and anger.

However, at this moment, Xu Qingfan was still in his dream, soaking in the warm spring, feeling extremely comfortable, his face showing a level of enjoyment he had never had before.

After sitting down on a huge rock at the bottom of the water, he rested his arms on the bank.

It seemed that the rock was right above the spring’s outlet, which made the temperature much higher there, and Xu Qingfan tensed up his muscles in comfort, his hands tightly grasping anything they could.

"Mmm~"

Snapping back to reality, Xia Xiaoxiao emitted a painful moan that sounded quite nice, and her brain regained control of her body.

Her first instinct was to pull away Xu Qingfan’s wayward hand, but because she worried about waking him, and since this detestable dog was using a lot of force, she was unable to do so immediately.

What made the girl even more ashamed and angry was that she found herself gradually losing strength in her body, and the desire to push away the despicable hand seemed not so strong anymore.

[It’s all his fault because he won’t let go!]

Xia Xiaoxiao simply feigned cowardice and shut her eyes like an ostrich, but her cerebral cortex was constantly bombarded with stimuli, challenging her nerves at every moment.

How to describe this feeling? Well, even though she had been lurking in forums for many years, she wouldn’t know how to express it—it kind of felt like she was about to break...

The young girl’s ten cute toes clenched the bedsheets tightly, and her restless hands were balled into tight fists.

It was unclear how much time had passed, but Xu Qingfan in his sleep seemed to have adjusted to the rock’s temperature, and his previously tense nerves relaxed again, his hands that were exposed on the bank gradually returned to the water.

The bedroom was very quiet with the doors and windows firmly shut, apart from the "hum" of the air conditioner and the "creak" of the wooden bed.

After a while, the wooden bed ceased shaking, and once the room temperature reverted to sixty degrees, the air conditioner also stopped cooling.

But that didn’t mean the room became any quieter—the girl’s heavy breathing replaced the former noises.

At that moment, Xia Xiaoxiao was unsure of her own feelings; she just wanted to escape from the place quickly, which is what she did.

After pulling away Xu Qingfan’s hand, she got up from the bed feeling light-headed, hastily put on her shoes, and stumbled out of the room.

Minutes later, Xia Xiaoxiao returned to her own bedroom, and by the time she closed the door, she had no energy left, sliding softly to the floor with her back against the door.

She sat there in a daze, arms wrapped around her knees, her face still flushed, the redness spreading down her neck, resembling an ocean ravaged by plankton.

It was hard to know what she was thinking at that moment; she sometimes stared blankly, sometimes frowned, sometimes grinned foolishly—it looked as if she was doing some sort of facial expression challenge.

After a long while, Xia Xiaoxiao stood up again and, regaining some strength, she opened the wardrobe to look for clothes to change into.

As she prepared to go out again, she noticed a small wet patch on the wooden floor by the door.

Xia Xiaoxiao’s face instantly turned red again; she hurriedly grabbed tissues to cover up the evidence, and after finishing, she fled to the bathroom as if escaping.

The cold tap water flowing over her head finally brought back some of her usual sharpness.

Looking at the clothes she had just changed out of, a terrifying thought suddenly popped into her head, [That despicable dog’s bedsheet... I hope I didn’t wet it... right...]

If Xia Xiaoxiao were to choose again, she would say she wouldn’t allow it... Well, she guessed she would probably let that despicable dog sleep over again.

Worried about the bedsheet, she became increasingly anxious, and even her showering pace inadvertently quickened.

Meanwhile, she inevitably thought of another question: sleeping with this stinky dog twice, and both times such incidents occurred—what about Lin Wanning?

Lin Wanning had slept with this stinky dog far more times than she had. Had similar events occurred between them?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Two brief experiences had already been this exasperating; with Lin Wanning’s numerous instances, how could it not be problematic?

Xia Xiaoxiao failed to realize that she was actually being hypocritical: it was okay for Xu Qingfan to behave that way with her, but not with others!

When asked why, the reason was men and women shouldn’t touch each other!

As for herself and this stinky dog, that was just an accident!

If she knew Xu Qingfan’s ultimate piece of wisdom, the girl might have also exclaimed, "I’ve just made the mistake every woman does!"

["He promised me he wouldn’t sneak into Lin Wanning’s quilt!"]

After Xia Xiaoxiao rinsed the foam off her body, she grabbed the towel hanging on the door and dried off.

Unable to dry her hair in time, the girl hastily got dressed and rushed back to Xu Qingfan’s bedroom.

When the girl, full of hope, pulled back the quilt, she didn’t escape Murphy’s Law.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt doomed; if that stinky dog didn’t know about the incident, she could still fool herself into thinking it never happened, just like the last time.

But if the stinky dog found out, the girl couldn’t even begin to imagine the consequences; just the thought made her dig her toes into the ground, as if trying to carve out a three-bedroom apartment.

"Meow~"

Just as Xia Xiaoxiao was sinking into despair, a cat’s meow, like a meteor cutting through the dark night, brought her hope.

The girl looked down at the cat rubbing against her feet, a mischievous expression on her face.

She bent over, grabbed the cat’s two front paws, and lifted it into the air.

"Meow?" Little Bro yawned and then let out a puzzled meow.

"Don’t blame me, Little Bro... I didn’t want this either..."

Minutes later, ghostly wails of a cat echoed from the bathroom, familiar to anyone with a bit of cat-raising experience—it was bath time for the cat.

"Old Wu~ Old Wu~"

"Okay, okay, stop yelling. A nice, fragrant bath and then it’s straight to bed. Be good; I’ll buy you a big shrimp to eat later," Xia Xiaoxiao consoled while giving it a massage.

"Meows~"

Worrying that Xu Qingfan might suddenly wake up, she didn’t dare bathe it for too long, quickly working up a lather before rinsing it off as done.

After toweling the cat so its fur barely dripped, the girl sneakily carried the half-wet Little Bro back to Xu Qingfan’s bedroom.

Lift the quilt, toss in the cat, cover it up, and with three easy steps, the task was complete.

Xia Xiaoxiao slipped out of the room with a triumphant expression and finally sat down on the living room sofa, relieved.

After an unknown amount of time, a ghostly howl emanated from the bedroom.

"Stinky Xia Xiaoxiao, are you stupid or what? Why would you put this damp stinky cat in here!!!"
